[gaunt rampart]

any advice on loadout recommendations to run when low on money?

[patent lily]

Thanks. Been brutal tonight.

[wise ether]

Sks with scope honestly

Yeah I play really late at night usually and still get shit on

[crimson idol]

should i keep an fp-100 water filter

[bleak oak]

depends - what level are you?

it's an air filter btw

it is to be used in your air filtering unit to level your physical skills faster.. but to unlock it you need to build out your hideout

[bleak oak]

you can also run whatever you find as a scav or spawn with, if you're really low on money

get yourself some RGNs or RGOs ; )

[rain nymph]

depends on your level - lower level the mp shotguns are really nice and cheap, super effective if you have flechette. Mid ish level a vepr hunter with m80 can put geared players down quickly. Higher level the mp7 is super good

[austere valley]

Anyone able to help me with quests? I don’t know any other map other than customs.

[glossy osprey]

lvl5 NA - need help with the Jaeger Introduction mission. Experience with Factory and Customs but haven't been to woods before.

[fluid linden]

[mild snow]

[distant fable]

[dry belfry]

Toggle is just what I'm used to in tarkov now

[mild snow]

[elfin pendant]

[whole thistle]

[dry belfry]

The champ is here

[whole thistle]

#1 tt user na

[distant fable]

i dont rate the jacket xd

[lofty hull]

you think this will be ok for customs? (Kobra EKP-8-02 on the pp-19, and a G21 flashlight+lazer for the M9)

[distant fable]

Yeah its a decent kit ! dont forget some food if needed :p

[mild snow]

the paca does nothing fr but solid overall

[whole thistle]

dont take a sidearm

[distant fable]

scavs shoot your unprotected limbs

paca always better than nothing

[mild snow]

forsure but dogshit armor

pmcs will shred it with good ammo

[distant fable]

yeah but its his first wipe and all its good

what lvl are u fox

[lofty hull]

like 6

[lofty hull]

lemme get better armor then

fuck

[mild snow]

bet check ur insurance

[lofty hull]

you need to trade

[mild snow]

lmaooo paca really only armor at low level ur fine

[whole thistle]

you can buy a level 3 rig from ragman, just run your current thing youre fine

[lofty hull]

is the GB2 any better

[elfin pendant]

cant bsg implement a trust factor system like cs go so that at least if they dont ban cheaters they are more likely to not get into lobbies with regular players?

[lofty hull]

i am level 3.

[whole thistle]

6b2?

[distant fable]

Dont bother using a different armor really, its a good starter

[lofty hull]

this

[whole thistle]

worse than paca

[lofty hull]

huh

[whole thistle]

the durability looks better but paca has a better material so the real durability is better on the paca

[mild snow]

just as ass armor

[lofty hull]

fair enough

[mild snow]

youll get better ones as you level up

[lofty hull]

what should i insure

ma PP-19

[whole thistle]

sure

also dont take the pistol

[distant fable]

everything, nobody will pick up your stuff

[mild snow]

early on i insure everything

[whole thistle]

insure everything but the mask and glasses imo

[mild snow]

people prob wont take it and never know what youll get back

I have a basic VPO-136 modded

[brittle canyon]

[dull mulch]

Helmet same as armor?

[dull mulch]

Yeah

[brittle canyon]

no helmet unless you have ratnik or better

[dull mulch]

Ok

[brittle canyon]

if no helmet wear something to cover baldness

[brittle canyon]

would switch to sks for poverty runs since u don’t even need a rig

[dull mulch]

For meds, i should get a tourniquet and a bandage, with a car and splint in pouch right?

[brittle canyon]

and for non-poverty runs craft your 136 to akm

splint optional depending on map

[elfin pendant]

[fathom yacht]

what map is good for pmc cus i keep dying when i go pmc with good guns on factory

[edgy plover]

Woods or Customs
Woods is harder to learn but safer.
Customs is easier to learn but more dangerous.
Do not go to Factory. Factory is scary.
https://mapgenie.io/tarkov
Use these maps - they'll look cluttered at first. Hit "Hide All" on the left-hand toolbar, then scroll down and only toggle on "Extractions" and "Locations". That'll give you a pretty good look - feel free to toggle on some loot options as you go

[whole thistle]

Don't go factory

[torpid fox]

what setting do i use? i have a

1050 ti ryzen 3 3300x 32 gbs of dd4 ram

[wise ether]

Factory is easy to learn but extremely dangerous for a new player, lots of scavs and pmcs that go there only for pvp

[rigid light]

FINALLY

[flat arrow]

what did i do wrong

[wise ether]

This ain’t the reason you died but I recommend sprinting past the door freelooking into the room to potentially spot people

Or stop outside and listen for a moment

Whenever I enter a building I stop for about 10 seconds to listen (not really related but still)

[mint light]

bro i cannot tell where that guy is

[low heron]

maybe was behind?

bad luck moment

[open crypt]

gunsmith 8 wont work can any1 help?

[rigid light]

maybe it's because you're using AKMN

i really don't know

[rigid light]

seems you followed wiki down to a T

[mint light]

needs to be akm

not akmn

[open crypt]

ahh my bad thanks

[whole thistle]

Slowly left peeked a door to a pvp area

[harsh heart]

how is it possible that I get the good 3 story dorms spawn(by landbridge) and still get beat

Isnt it the closest spawn to the building

[severe trench]

which API does Tarkov use?

[mint light]

can spawn next to two story dorms too

[harsh heart]

well isnt my spawn the closest

I have like level 13 endurance

[mint light]

can get their around the same time

[wispy marten]

The one behind two story is closer for sure

[prime comet]

It is yeah

truly, a tremendous skill issue

[vapid sentinel]

you got shot back right. probably someone coming into thru the escalator. depeending on raid time. if its early raid on interchange either wait or get out of the initial area of all the doors if youre looking to rat.

[vapid sentinel]

enable auto fill

[vapid sentinel]

what part are you on?

No key and no folder

Will you use it?

Try out in an offline raid factory with max amount of scavs

V nice

Ye it do

[rigid light]

man

[tepid arrow]

https://escapefromtarkov.fandom.com/wiki/Quests

Check the quest items tab

[loud jetty]

Why do people sell things on the flea market instead of to traders?

[tepid arrow]

Flea can offer a higher price

Players buy things off flea

[loud jetty]

But if stuff on flea is more expensive wouldn't people just buy things off the traders

[tepid arrow]

Can’t

[loud jetty]

oh right

[tepid arrow]

Mostly barter items are in flea

Last I checked like 8.5k

[loud jetty]

How much accuracy is good?

[woeful spruce]

you should not worry about the acuraccy stat that much if youre shooting at below 100m distance

[loud jetty]

When did I say I was shooting below 100m ?

[tepid arrow]

An assumption of a low level prolly

[loud jetty]

I'm low level and I prefer trying to get some snipes in at woods

[tranquil raptor]

so I got an error with my launcher to the game and it says GatewayTimeout and I can't join the game what should I do?

[tepid arrow]

Servers dead rn

[tranquil raptor]

oh

that's why when I got killed I had black screen

[static nebula]

i think you are right

if youre going to snipe rogues or other long range stuff 1.5 moa is good enough to not be frustrating, the lower the better, as far as i know the sniper rifle with the best acuraccy while supressed is the sv 98

[tranquil raptor]

and then I restarted pc and it said Loading Profile data

[tepid arrow]

Dw about it

Servers just pooped

[tranquil raptor]

yea

[ocean fable]

can confirm servers just died

[tepid arrow]

Give it like 30 mins and it’ll prolly be back up

[tranquil raptor]

servers down

[ocean fable]

maybe its the new sale too many new people 😄

[wild oyster]

I'm trying to open the launcher, but I'm stuck at this error. Before this my computer switched off due to a power cut. Any help?

[static nebula]

servers ded

[tranquil raptor]

servers down

not from you

[wild oyster]

Oh for everyone ah. okay

[ocean fable]

yes. them ded

[wild oyster]

[alpine rover]

f

[tranquil raptor]

yea and I lost my kit because of that

[wild oyster]

The sale started?

[loud jetty]

yeah it did i just bought dayZ

[tranquil raptor]

yea

[open vapor]

hello Im getting an error after extracting from factory it says it cant fetch my profile or something??

[wild oyster]

Servers ded apparently

[open vapor]

okok so its not just me

[ocean fable]

be glad you managed to extract just before servers went to shit

[tranquil raptor]

yea I didnt have time

so rip a pretty good kit

[ocean fable]

same. bloody 900k kit gone

[open vapor]

i guess I saved my cool vector I built haha

[oblique slate]

When I was evacuating

[fickle tendon]

same.

[tepid arrow]

Big rip

[dusty mortar]

They spilled the coffee

[tepid arrow]

I was just bouta help a homie with checking

[tranquil raptor]

yea I wanted to do that also

[fickle tendon]

went in to run a scav, found some gen4 armor on an unlooted pmc and then extracted and got this now i cant get the game workin. keeps giving me that error.

[tranquil raptor]

server ded

[tepid arrow]

Big dead

[dusty mortar]

servers are fucked

[fickle tendon]

ggs

[dusty mortar]

backend error is not your fault

[tepid arrow]

Normally they don’t kick you outa raid

[tranquil raptor]

for me it kicked

[tepid arrow]

Yea sumn bigish happened

[timid haven]

yo guys i have this poping up when i am trying to log in the game anyone knows what to do? Error on POST https://launcher.escapefromtarkov.com/launcher/config?launcherVersion=12.12.1.1911. Status code: BadGateway

[tranquil raptor]

server ded

[low heron]

looks like everyone has it

[sonic flame]

pls help

[timid haven]

mannn i just extracted when it happend really wish it extracted me

[low heron]

server ded

[fickle tendon]

same here

[sonic flame]

do you get it too ?

[fickle tendon]

everyone has it right now g

[low heron]

yeah

[sonic flame]

thanks i scared so much

[tranquil raptor]

wait so if I have an alpha case on me and die mid run do I keep it or just the items inside it

[rotund garnet]

guess you lose it

bruh for u

[ruby adder]

Anything in your pouch is safe on death

[tranquil raptor]

no i didnt have it

[tranquil raptor]

so even the case

[ruby adder]

If you put something in there from that raid and die, that item will also lose its FIR Status

& Yeah, the case + contents are 100% secure

[tranquil raptor]

ok

so I can just take the case with me all the time

[rotund garnet]

yus

[ruby adder]

Correct, it's perfect when starting out. Take a CMS + AFAIK and you got reserve heals with little to no risk + slots to free up when you find something you want to keep

[tranquil raptor]

yep

I will do that when sv back up

[loud jetty]

from my experience you'll keep your loot

[fickle tendon]

ty

[frigid galleon]

anyone get this

[tranquil raptor]

everyone got it

[frigid galleon]

oh okay

[loud jetty]

To anyone scared of losing loot, you will most likely keep all your loot, the way this game is built, it is made to be recognized as a new pre-release game, Nikita has constructed it so that any problems and malfunctions with the servers will not greatly affect your gameplay.

[bold kernel]

Everytime I try to load up BSG Launcher

Any help?

[tranquil raptor]

everyone has it

[bold kernel]

Oh tf for that

[loud jetty]

What?

[tranquil raptor]

idk i think server crash

[bold kernel]

got the same thing :/

[void swan]

@bold kernel same here, tarkov down for right now or something?

[tranquil raptor]

yes

it is

[opaque mica]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5aKWGFZf9Rg&ab_channel=Onepeg

[opaque mica]

ok

[loud jetty]

Let's attentively comply to the words of someone who says "newsie news"

[opaque mica]

good

[tranquil raptor]

true

servers back i think

[loud jetty]

Yes,

[tranquil raptor]

lets go i didnt lose my stuff

[loud jetty]

Of course,

[old kraken]

any reason why when i put my login in the launcher it says that a confirmation code will be sent to my email but it never gets sent

[sonic flame]

is servers ok now ?

[midnight notch]

any lab chads here willing to help a timmy out i need to find 2 stims have spent alot of money and lost alot of gear trying to find them haha

[finite palm]

i was extracting when the servers went down as scav and i lost one tier 6, and 5 purple items i need ;_;

[sonic flame]

F

[loud jetty]

You lost it?

[finite palm]

yep, i extract and the servers just went down meanwhile

[loud jetty]

Unfortunate

[finite palm]

and now i have the same scav character as if it hadn't went out

[fickle tendon]

Same here 😦

[static nebula]

you need 5 purple items? hmm, am I in wrong chat?

[loud jetty]

Anyone wanna run some woods, I'm level 7..

[fickle tendon]

I would run some but I gotta work in a few minutes and I'm personally not the biggest fan of woods haha

[loud jetty]

I die in 2 minutes in every other map

[tranquil raptor]

bro I've been waiting for 5 mins in a queue for a customs match and nothing is happening

[dense kettle]

I get extreme lag every time I burst/auto fire. Whenever I shoot single shots it doesn't lag as bad but it's still kind of annoying. Any way to fix this?

[static nebula]

servers may be ded again, not sure

[crystal oracle]

Tarkov down?

[tranquil raptor]

I think so

[dense kettle]

32GB

[loud jetty]

Jesus

[bold kernel]

is it normal for matching to take 8+ minutes?

[dense kettle]

RX 6600 XT

[tranquil raptor]

no

[static nebula]

i downloaded some ram from outside last week, to let my pc live while loading maps, and servers are down 😦

[crystal oracle]

Server dead prob

[tranquil raptor]

servers down again

[bold kernel]

Can anyone help me complete a quest?

[tranquil raptor]

which one

[crystal oracle]

downloaded? 💀

[loud jetty]

which one

[bold kernel]

I need to do introduction from mechanic

to unlock jaeger

[tranquil raptor]

the one with the envelope?

[crystal oracle]

Yeah

[bold kernel]

so what do i do if servers dead?

[crystal oracle]

Wait

[loud jetty]

Sure, I've been wanting to run woods with a VPO

[tranquil raptor]

wait

[static nebula]

there is this game called irl, i played it and got some ram

[bold kernel]

Awesome I'm kind of new so i don't know my way around

the waiting game again...

[crystal oracle]

Sheesh. Must be a sick game!

[loud jetty]

anyone else want to run woods with me and Murph

[tranquil raptor]

maybe after I do the checking mission from prapor

[static nebula]

it has awesome graphics, but most of the spawns suck ass

[bold kernel]

I need to relaunch real quick

[loud jetty]

I am also pretty new, I have good aim but very poor map awareness

[crystal oracle]

Oh the spawns which are in the hospitals?

[bold kernel]

same :>

[static nebula]

some of them are, not all

[bold kernel]

now its taking forever leaving the game

[crystal oracle]

What are the other spawns?

[tranquil raptor]

alt f4

[bold kernel]

this isnt normal

[crystal oracle]

ALT F4

[primal jay]

anybody wanna add me on discord and play?

[tranquil raptor]

it is not

[crystal oracle]

No shit sherlock

[static nebula]

back of a car, at a house etc

[bold kernel]

this game crashes a lot and when it doesnt it takes forever

[crystal oracle]

Ahhhh i see

I may need to play this game

[crystal oracle]

"Servers are down"

Just gotta wait

[bold kernel]

@loud jettyWe will play when servers are back up

[static nebula]

am I 3rd wipe if I started last year, got to lvl10 before 12.12

[loud jetty]

me and murph will play on woods when servers are back up, care to join?

[bold kernel]

why am i always stuck at loading profile data screen

[crystal oracle]

No

Wait

When did you start

[static nebula]

august

[crystal oracle]

THen yes you are

[primal jay]

sure ive gotta go to convoy and the camp

[dusky geyser]

ah, bait
my favourite!

[static nebula]

scavs kill me less than a year ago 🙂

[crystal oracle]

Lovely bait :D

[loud jetty]

sounds good, I am mainly looking for some passive sniping with my VPO

[bold kernel]

ARGH. i want to strangle the developers right now

[primal jay]

u in a call?

[crystal oracle]

lmao

[loud jetty]

not yet we are just waiting for the servers to stabilize enough to confide in

[bold kernel]

so is anything going to happen when it says loading profile data or should i just close the game (again sigh)

[crystal oracle]

close game

And wait

[bold kernel]

so i cant even play this overpriced shit till the servers are back up?

[static nebula]

they are harder to hit from a distance if they lay down, or its harder to preaim

[crystal oracle]

Its not really overpriced lmao

Its early access beta for a reason

[bold kernel]

44 bucks,yea it is

[tranquil raptor]

probably for them to take cover

that's why

[crystal oracle]

Normal price for a popular game 💀

[bold kernel]

its broken

[crystal oracle]

"Early access"

Ofc theres gonna be bugs

[bold kernel]

excuses

[static nebula]

it works most off the time, and yea "early access"

[primal jay]

sent u a message

[tranquil raptor]

yea some people do wierd stuff

[crystal oracle]

Bro, dont buy the game if you expect it to be perfect

Its early access beta for a reason my guy

[static nebula]

wow has been out for ages and its not perfect 😛

[crystal oracle]

Going for full release next year so

[bold kernel]

well not perfect, but being able to actually play it would be nice

[static nebula]

i mean world of warcraftu

[indigo sphinx]

Hey guys i just started this wipe, where can i find OLOLO almost consistently?

[tranquil raptor]

this happens to every game

not only to tarkov

even bigger games have server crashes

[bold kernel]

well tarkov takes the cake bro

[crystal oracle]

You gotta remember, BSG are not big in terms of devs

[bold kernel]

suxx hardcore

[static nebula]

what is OLOLO?

[ocean fable]

in woods in the usec camp medical table or in labs green key card room

[crystal oracle]

Just sound salty man

[indigo sphinx]

alright thanks 🙂

[ocean fable]

I dont know how to spell it but he probbably mean ophtalmoscope

[crystal oracle]

Why did you expect this game to be perfect when it clearly has "Early access" in the name?

You must be stupid or smth

[tranquil raptor]

yea it even says on the main page

[crystal oracle]

^^

[bold kernel]

crashed on extraction earler, lost all my shit been trying to play ever since with no success

[crystal oracle]

Just unlucky g

[bold kernel]

now i got a laucher error

[fickle tendon]

they are having issues with their servers dude. its not just you everyone is having issues. stop being so self centered

[bold kernel]

FUCK ME

[loud jetty]

@primal jay - @bold kernel

[clear flume]

because the servers are fucked currently

[crystal oracle]

Bro, what specs do you ahve

[clear flume]

fucking donut

[rotund garnet]

bruh my guy there using that as an excuse because these days if u want to release a buggy thing u just say oh but its a beta so everything is fine

[clear flume]

also how much ram do you have

[bold kernel]

this whole gaming experience is fucked if u ask me

24

[crystal oracle]

Ikr!!!! I think games in beta should be "PERFECT"

[clear flume]

your loss

[bold kernel]

rams not the issue bro

[clear flume]

[crystal oracle]

Man has 24gb of ram 💀

Why not 32

[dense kettle]

Why can't I buy the box? I definitely have enough money so I'm a little confused.

[tranquil raptor]

16 nah

3 sticks of 8

[crystal oracle]

You clearly dodne

dont

742k

Its 1.1m

[dense kettle]

Oh wait, my eyes doo doo

[crystal oracle]

xD

[clear flume]

you have 700k
the box is 1.1 mil

[dense kettle]

My bad

[vapid sentinel]

scav boxes are 1mil not 100k.

[rotund garnet]

no i think a game should not come out until its finished because when u buy something u get the full thing not just a beta

[ocean fable]

unlucky m8. first time I have these problems since wipe day. Servers will work fine again eventually and stay working fine for most of the time. Any game even the most praised tripple A title can have server problems sometimes, you should try basing your opinion on actually playing the game

[bold kernel]

so will the laucher start working when the whole servers issue crap has been resolved?

[ocean fable]

yes it should

[vapid sentinel]

i dont have launcher issues just stuck on loading profile

[crystal oracle]

Yeah but the thing is, they need early acesses and betas to make sure the game is running fine

[bold kernel]

so now im left scratching my balls

[crystal oracle]

They need actual players to test the game to make sure its working correctlyu

[bold kernel]

this is why i hate fucking online shit

always waiting for some server issues

[grand flame]

This is my first wipe, is there a good order to use ammo as it unlocks? I feel like my PS is throwing spit balls at level 4 already

[ocean fable]

sometimes that how it is, no matter what online game you play. Try to occupy your time elsewhere for a few hours or if you really wanna get into tarkov right this moment maybe use the downtime to watch some guides

[grand flame]

It seems like once you get some decent ammo against T4 you're good to go, I've mag dumped ammo and they shrugged it off. Right now I'm relying on sniping using my BT rounds in my mosin

[bold kernel]

im not spending my time watching fucking tarkov videos, i bought the game to play it not to fucking watch how to play it

[ocean fable]

you can focus different ammo types depending what you are looking for since they are generally locked behind different quest chains at specific merchants

[bold kernel]

fuc

fuck this its ARMA time

[clear flume]

brainlet

stop being a stuck up ass wipe

[vapid sentinel]

then go play offline single player games or stop complaining xD

[ocean fable]

by that statement alone I can almost guarantee you that you will not enjoy the game. It has a steep learning curve and if you are unwilling to look and utilize information about it you will fail miserably

[clear flume]

once you start playing
if i see you complaining that you dont understand something
imma point you straight back to your stubbornness

[frosty quarry]

woah there calm down bucko, i would suggest you really do watch those guides. because you are gonna have literally no idea what your doing

[rotund garnet]

yeah there is a job about that its just more conviniant to make people pay and test a game instead of paying someone to test it

[bold kernel]

nah bro, i dont wanna turn into u guys

[vapid sentinel]

they also need the funding to finish the game. this game is a massive project

[wispy stratus]

anyone have a issue getting into tarkov?

[clear flume]

[clear flume]

scroll up

[frosty quarry]

An absolute gamer?

[tranquil raptor]

then why did you buy the game in the first place

[vapid sentinel]

you either turn into chads or get eradicated as a rat

[clear flume]

[wispy stratus]

i cant log in

help granpa

[grand flame]

When am I no longer a timmy?

[vapid sentinel]

when you consistantly clear full lobbies and have 50% SR without ratting

[wispy stratus]

what gives

[clear flume]

my gamer

scroll up

the servers are down currently

[wispy stratus]

just saw that thabnks

[ocean fable]

I honestly cant say I understand your hostility. You come to the official tarkov discord the moment you buy the game because of a technical server issue and complain about it very confrontationally, insult people and are overall rude and condescending.
Cant tell if you are actually a 14 year old slightly underdeveloped child who thinks he is the shit or simply some sexually frustrated incel with no people skills.
If you decide to not play tarkov the community will not be any worse off for it.
And yes I am glad that you cannot refund the game xD

[fickle tendon]

[clear flume]

[frosty quarry]

servers are down currently

[tranquil raptor]

they back up i think

[limber cliff]

time to run labs since i can play tarkov

w

[tranquil raptor]

can you just hire scavs?

[distant fable]

Yeah in the hideout you can

Just to bring u loot

[tranquil raptor]

oj nice

[fast aspen]

Someone can tell me what keys are recommended for lighthouse?

[wild oyster]

Yeah, they are back online.

[clear flume]

@bold kernel servers are back up
go have fun getting fucked

[fervent sorrel]

hellooo i just bought tarkov today a played like 10 raids but died in every single one of them and i find it hard to gather some loot and extract it cause everytime i killed someone i went to find some extraction point but when i got there i got shot by someone who was camping the point. And since i bought some gear, i am running out of rubles and i feel like am stuck so i would like to ask for some help 😅

[clear flume]

might have a good chance asking for assistance from the sherpas

can probably find a few hanging around in this channel sometimes

[dusty mortar]

I recommend playing factory for your PMC

And Scaving on Reserve

Reserve has good loot all over the place, get up some maps on a second monitor or phone and learn the maps that way

[clear flume]

factory pmc is an easy way to get fucked by flechette shotguns

[dusty mortar]

Better than getting fucked by a chad 300m away on customs or something

Factory is the best for new players

Small map and lots of combat you can get into

[clear flume]

new players dont want combat though
especially against people that will more than likely have superior gear and game sense

[dusty mortar]

Without combat he wont get better

[clear flume]

playing it safe on bigger maps helps them understand the game a little

then they can move towards combat

[dusty mortar]

I mean sure

[clear flume]

it just gives them the option of if they dont feel confident they can avoid it

[dusty mortar]

PVP is still a big part of tarkov

[hollow dragon]

Is there a way to make sure I dont get rain in a raid?

Its fucking aids

[dusty mortar]

Sooner or later you will need to learn it

[clear flume]

nope

just gotta suffer eith it

or use sordins

sordins are pretty chill in the rain

[dusty mortar]

play factory

[hollow dragon]

I just facechecked a kid on interchange and it felt very unrewarding

[dusty mortar]

[burnt fossil]

dont just facecheck u gotta play like u can die in one shot sound is important

[low heron]

servers up yet?

[burnt fossil]

im loadin into a scav match so i would imagine

[hollow dragon]

Tell that to the rain

[burnt fossil]

u can still hear the footsteps u will learn to distinguish footsteps in rain

u can also fuck with ur equalizer settings and get a lil boost out of footsteps

[safe horizon]

whats the point of playing as a scav? Does the loot you get transfer to your pmc orrrr?

[burnt fossil]

yes if u survive

[twin rover]

is there a way to get a larger pouch?

[tranquil raptor]

from which npc can I buy some food cuz my character has 24

[tired willow]

I just got two of these intelligence thingis what r they

[clear flume]

used for intel center

[bold kernel]

or u can sell dem for 180k but i say intel t1 is better

[tired willow]

What does it do

[bold kernel]

makes your scav timer less

and boosts ur skills

[tired willow]

Oh

Alr thx g

[clear flume]

get more money from tasks and gives scav tasks

[bold kernel]

got it

[spiral zodiac]

@tranquil raptor nobody really sells food.. therapist has a little bit for trade.. you have to craft it or wait for your regen to finish

[bold kernel]

or u can find food in a scav raid

[spiral zodiac]

^

[velvet bay]

yes you can. go to woods village next to the vehicle exit. pull up map genie on chrome if you have no idea where you're going

[wraith flame]

Are servers still fucked

Can I play now

[edgy fjord]

are there any oce tarkov servers on discord?

[edgy fjord]

they are fixed

[spiral zodiac]

us servers are up

[wraith flame]

ight

[wise ether]

only EOD players's servers are up at the moment

[wraith flame]

Yo what

[spiral zodiac]

imagine not being eod

[wraith flame]

Man Im fucking broke

[edgy fjord]

ARE THERE EVEN ANY OCE SERVERS?!

[wraith flame]

Sorry but tf is oce

[bold kernel]

oceania

[wise ether]

oh

[bold kernel]

its like australia

[wraith flame]

Region

oh

[wise ether]

probably

[bold kernel]

i need help w questing : O

[wraith flame]

Don't we all

[edgy fjord]

it's oceanic

so like southern hemisphere

including australia

side note i just got the best loot run i've ever had from customs fortress

and got shot in the face by some trio running from crackhouse

[tranquil raptor]

I got a mustache from a scav what do I do with it

[pallid kernel]

Guys, what are the "technical issues" that bsg launcher is warning me about

[sand wyvern]

Issues on the technical side

[pallid kernel]

will i get any in-game issues?

[sand wyvern]

I mean i just did 2 raids no problem

[tranquil raptor]

can anyone help me I have some items which idk if I should sell or not

[burnt fossil]

what level are you

and what items

[static nebula]

send pic

[tranquil raptor]

ok

[velvet edge]

Is this good

[tranquil raptor]

lvl 5

ill send in dms Csoni

[static nebula]

its a risky key, that used to have op loot, now its meh, and you need another key for kiba

[soft timber]

which of these guns should i be selling? i feel like im hoarding a lot of random shit that i just don't need... I like all these guns but I would not mind selling some to create more space in my stash

[mint canyon]

anyone know a good map to practice pvp?

or locations?

[burnt fossil]

factory is the funnest imo

[vague juniper]

Factory is small so you will run into pmc's alot more

[burnt fossil]

i go in naked with shotgun walk out like a champion

[mint canyon]

aight ill try that

[burnt fossil]

if u have ur workshop

make 8.5m buckshot and aim for legs

[mint canyon]

no workshop so

ill just go in and run and gun

[burnt fossil]

7mm will b good enuf

if u use shotgun

[mint canyon]

yeah prolly will

[soft timber]

for me it's also a bit fun to go into an offline raid on factory while tagged and cursed on factory with horde level of scavs, fun to see how long you can survive

[burnt fossil]

good way to get rid of gear fear is getting used to using it vs taguilla lmao

aim for the legs tonker

[mint canyon]

got it

[burnt fossil]

i just made 400k off a scav run on lighthouse

that new section is bussin

[robust loom]

Lighthouse best scav spot

[rain wing]

is tarky still down?

[granite seal]

anyone wanna play?

[lofty hinge]

no it's up

[granite seal]

im lvl2

[slender flower]

@granite seal ill play

[granite seal]

how do i invite or join?

[hollow otter]

how do i get my fence rp up, its down at -4,27 because i didnt know you shouldnt kill scavs

[proud crow]

rip

[normal shale]

Uhh, good luck, it will take a pretty long time no matter what you do

[proud crow]

you get it up by car extracts, co op extracts, killing traitor scavs, extracting as a scav, and by fence quests

Im pretty sure he will give decent quests for increasing rep if yours is bad

[hollow otter]

but what do i do if the scavs starts blasting at me

[normal shale]

You can defend yourself, just can't initiate.

[hollow otter]

ah

[proud crow]

You wont lose rep as long as he either hits you first or hes already killed another scav

[hollow otter]

ok

[normal shale]

Best strategy for a scav is simply to avoid any and all contact with suspicious individuals, if not everyone entirely.

[proud crow]

The system is kinda wonky so if he shoots at you, misses & you kill him & he hasnt killed another scav, thats a rep hit for you

[hollow otter]

what if is a ai scav

[normal shale]

That's true, which is why you avoid people entirely.

[proud crow]

yea

AI scavs wont shoot at you as long as youve been good that raid

[hollow otter]

ok thx for that

[normal shale]

If an AI shoots you, you've seriously fucked up, you just have to run out of line of sight and hope not to get shot further, if you shoot back, it's lost rep no matter what.

[hollow otter]

all i can do right now is really scav because i havent even extracted from a raid, and i cant even get jaeger unlocked 😦

[normal shale]

Ah, you're in a pretty rough spot.

[hollow otter]

yea

[proud crow]

Id recommend using #pvp-lfg or look into a sherpa if you need help learning the game

[hollow otter]

i have found a sherpa that can help me tommorow

[normal shale]

What level are you at this point in time?

[hollow otter]

5 3/4

[proud crow]

It might be worth it to account reset

[normal shale]

Alright, that's not insignificant, but if you feel like you've really hit a wall, you might want to consider a reset.

[hollow otter]

i have 3 +1 fence rep quests

right now

and does it do anything if i buy weapons from him @normal shale @proud crow

[normal shale]

Buy from fence? Buying anything from anyone shouldn't influence rep to any capacity unless I misunderstand the question?

[hollow otter]

ok

the problem is that i have a pretty full inventory of stuff i plan on selling if i get the flea market

[proud crow]

you can only sell found in raid items on the flea

So only items with the little white checkmark in the bottom right corner

and even then its not all items

[hollow otter]

ah ok

[burnt fossil]

1mil in 2 scav runs lighthouse. its a good day

[normal shale]

Nicely done.

[proud crow]

classic loothouse

[burnt fossil]

those ammo boxes b giftin grenade rounds rngbless

[woven fiber]

Does mp-18 single shot work for the iron sight jeager quest?

[burnt fossil]

its technically not a bolt action so i would assume no

its a break away sniper or something to that name

[woven fiber]

Ye thats why im asking

Idk if i die ill try it

[hollow otter]

@proud crow are any of these worth anything

[burnt fossil]

keep ur labs keycards theres a quest to turn in 2 i think

[hollow otter]

and is it worth upgrading the hideout

[burnt fossil]

100%

[hollow otter]

i have 400k what should i upgrade

[proud crow]

It depends on what map you play for those keys

If you dont play shoreline you can sell both resort keys as neither are that expensive to buy on flea later

Keep the keycard
